Sandbox - 24jun20

[In the intro to the last Sandbox, my invitation to readers to discuss the dollar-value of human life went over like a turd in a punchbowl.  It appears that the best approach to discussing the value of human lives is just to bloviate with a lot of virtue signalling thrown in.  That's supposed to divert the reader from discovering that the writer has no idea what he's talking about.  Public policies are supposed to be made with some regard to a broadly agreed on dollar-value of a human life, but only, I guess, if the public gives a damn.  Oh well.  gjr]

In America, the value is the best lawyers fighting for you in Alabama. In a fascist and communist state, your life is not worth a plug nickel.

I'm afraid that your topics are never going to stick given the All Trump, All The Time mini-posts of Ms. Mary and the Propagandist of Broad St.

On political websites, it's what known as a 'thread slide'.

A potential solution. Invent a thread for 'Trump', move all the Trump-centric stuff there as it appears. A bit of trouble, but not a bad cleanup move. Turn if off when the election gets closer and it actually really matters.

Hey kind of rich that the fatboy adler is holding hearings with disaffected democrat DOJ goons accusing Barr of politics when it was the previous goons like Holder and Comey and Struck. The world is upside down and the press just stenos the dem fools. America is really in need of a "Liar Liar" like medicine.

What planet does he come from? Unbelievable.

Alternate reality: “We have seen over the last couple of years is a White House enabled by Republicans in Congress and a media structure that supports them and has not just differed in terms of policy but has gone to the very foundations of who we are and who we should be.” —Barack Obama

And more quotes, saying the best for last, IMHO

For the record: “They sent 15 federal agents to investigate a rope in a garage, meanwhile violent mobs are burning buildings, tearing down statues, and assaulting people, and nothing is done about it.” —Matt Walsh

Food for thought: “Trends happen for a reason. If we have this many people in our country pushing race hoaxes, maybe it’s time we address how much we’ve incentivized being a ‘victim’ of racism?” —Jesse Kelly

Dezinformatsiya, Part I: “A rule of thumb: If you’re lying about nonexistent voter fraud, if you’re limiting polling places, if you’re forcing people to line up to vote in a pandemic, even the old and the infirm, then it seems you’re basically admitting most Americans don’t want you to be president.” —Dan Rather

Dezinformatsiya, Part II: “In 2016, Pres. Trump claimed voter fraud to explain his loss in the popular vote. It was a lie. Now, with horrible polling, he’s trying to delegitimize the vote — through suppression and more lies about voting by mail.” —Dan Rather

Non compos mentis: “Being killed by the police is now the sixth leading cause of death for young men in America, and young black men are 2.5 times more likely than white men to be killed by police, while black women are 1.4 times more likely than white women to be killed by police.” —Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer

The buck stops… “By the time a [nursing-home COVID patient] was transferred after nine or 10 days, they were no longer contagious and what all the data says is, the reason you had infections in nursing homes were [sic] because the staff brought in the infection.” —New York Governor Andrew Cuomo

Alpha jackass: “For something to happen, [Republicans are] going to have to face the reality of police brutality, the reality of the need for justice in policing, and the recognition that there are many, many good people in law enforcement — but not all — and that we have to address those concerns. So far they’re trying to get away with murder, actually — the murder of George Floyd.” —House Speaker Nancy Pelosi

And last… “When you elevate victimhood as virtue, you will have people tripping over themselves (and their garage door openers) to be oppressed.” —Allie Beth Stuckey

HOUSE DEMS INVESTIGATE ROGER STONE SENTENCING
The Michael Flynn prosecution is over, assuming no en banc review of the panel’s decision putting an end to it. However, we can expect plenty of moaning from Democrats and their media allies, as well, I assume, as congressional hearings....

“Stone was sentenced by a liberal Democrat judge to 40 months in prison. But House Dems wanted a much longer sentence, and are crying foul because they didn’t it.

As I write this, Aaron Zelinsky, one of Stone’s prosecutors, is telling the House Judiciary Committee that the Department of Justice exerted significant pressure on the line prosecutors to reduce their recommended sentence for Stone. Zelinsky has said:

“What I heard – repeatedly – was that Roger Stone was being treated differently from any other defendant because of his relationship to the President. I was told that the Acting U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia, Timothy Shea, was receiving heavy pressure from the highest levels of the Department of Justice to cut Stone a break, and that the U.S. Attorney’s sentencing instructions to us were based on political considerations.”

As Bill points out, it’s pretty clear from this statement that Zelinsky lacks first hand knowledge of what was going on. And, indeed, the Justice Department has confirmed his lack of knowledge. Its spokesperson issued this statement:.....”

Trump was RIGHT!! "OBAMAGATE"

[Don Bessee]

Law and order are still strong sentiments among actual voters especially in swing congressional districts -

The survey revealed a generic Republican candidate holds a one-point advantage over a generic Democrat candidate amongst swing voters in battleground districts.

The poll said Republicans’ strongest issue, the economy, is voters’ top concern. Twenty-three percent of voters say the economy and creating more jobs are the most important issues for Congress, compared to 20 percent that they would like to focus on corruption, and ten percent said tackling the coronavirus pandemic.

Eleven percent said health care is the most important issue for Congress.

Fifty-percent of swing voters also approve of President Donald Trump’s handling of the economy, compared to 42 percent who disapprove. The NRCC memo emphasized they have not seen a decrease in swing voters’ approval of Trump’s handling of the economy.

Battleground districts swing voters are far less likely to vote for Democrats after hearing about the Democrats’ radical proposals, the NRCC wrote.

Swing voters largely disapprove of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) phase four coronavirus bill, the HEROES Act, which reportedly contains a provision that would allow for the release of prisoners, such as murders and rapists.

The "poll" you cite was taken by the The National Republican Congressional Committee so what do you expect but a rosy picture. That info is in the link you provided. As of this time all consensus polls so Trump down by around 10% to Biden so your polling doesn't mean anything. Dream on Don. By the way how did Measure W do? Our readers would like to be reminded.

https://www.oann.com/?p=2150574

Fat chance Comey and his band of dirty cops and dishonest Enemy of the People dirty news directors will ever apologize. Not in this lifetime.

Being an arrogant asshole means never having to say, “I’m sorry, I was wrong.” They can’t say that because they think they are never wrong. I suppose it’s the viewers/readers’s fault for believing them.

“Flynn is a liar! LIAR!!” He violated the Logan Act, yes the liar violated the Logan Act!!! Trump and his goons are criminals.

CORRUPTION (Bill sez: Biden goes after Flynn)
‘Explosive New FBI Notes Confirm Obama Directed Anti-Flynn Operation’

“Handwritten notes from fired former FBI agent Peter Strzok show that Obama himself directed key aspects of the campaign to target Flynn during a Jan. 5, 2017 meeting in the Oval Office.”....

“According to Strzok’s notes, Biden explicitly referenced the Logan Act, an 18th-century law that forbids certain political speech from private citizens. The law, even if it were constitutional, would not apply to a national security adviser for the newly elected president of the United States. Biden had previously denied that he knew anything about the investigation into Flynn.

“I know nothing about those moves to investigate Michael Flynn,” Biden said on ABC’s “Good Morning America” when George Stephanopoulos asked what he knew of the FBI’s operations in early 2017. He later admitted that statement was false.

The meeting to strategize against the Trump administration included just a few key law enforcement principals. Their testimony about what transpired is sometimes in conflict. Yates claimed Comey brought up the Logan Act while Comey claims Biden cited it. Rice claimed Obama directed that the anti-Trump operation be run “by the book,” but Comey claimed Obama even directed which personnel to use.

All parties agree, however, on the main substance of the meeting, which was a discussion of how to target Flynn for his “legit” phone calls and withhold vital national security information from the newly elected presidential administration”

Yes it is in fact 0gate -

Biden first responded, “I knew nothing about those moves to investigate Michael Flynn.”
When confronted by Stephanopoulos that he attended a now-famous January 2017 Oval Office meeting with then-President Obama and other top officials where they discussed Flynn, Biden claimed he understood the question to be whether he had anything to do with Flynn’s prosecution.

Then he said, “I was aware that they had asked for an investigation,” without specifying who “they” were.

“But that’s all I know about it. I don’t think anyone else — look, think about this,” he said, changing the subject to coronavirus. “This is all about diverting attention.”

However, newly-released handwritten notes from former FBI agent Peter Strzok show that not only was Biden aware of President Obama’s order to investigate Flynn, but he had suggested that Flynn had violated the 1799 Logan Act for speaking to then-Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergei Kislyak as incoming national security adviser.

They are laughing at the self guilting uber-liberal white folks -

BET founder Robert Johnson, in an interview Wednesday with Fox News, blasted those who are toppling Confederate and other statues across the nation as "borderline anarchists" -- while challenging the notion that black Americans support this.

People tearing down statues "have the mistaken assumption that black people are sitting around cheering for them saying 'Oh, my God, look at these white people. They're doing something so important to us. They're taking down the statue of a Civil War general who fought for the South," Johnson said.

"You know, black people, in my opinion, black people laugh at white people who do this the same way we laugh at white people who say we got to take off the TV shows."

“The Democrats have also announced that Biden will participate in three presidential debates. Frankly, this surprises me. I question whether he can survive them.

Don 7:26 - That was an interesting read. Did you notice the authors' repeated framing of the illegal acts with descriptions of the history of the persons whose statues were being torn down?
"Some attempts have grown heated; in New Mexico, a man was shot and wounded in a demonstration to tear down a monument to Spanish conquistador Juan de Oñate, a 16th-century despot who massacred indigenous people. The protest grew contentious after an armed militia group showed up at the scene."
A man was shot because he was violently attacking another man who was clearly trying to retreat and simply protect himself.
The sins of Onate apparently carry forward to excuse leftists to attempt murder on innocent people.
This is quite an amazing new concept in legal theory.
Something we have to look forward to in the new order under Biden.

Since the last few noose stories about rope swings in parks, nooses (a shoelace actually) lying on a co-ed dorm hallway carpet, and the latest noose found disguised as a door opener, I think that there is simply not enough Trump supporters walking around with nooses threatening to hang ‘em

POLL: AMERICANS ARE CONCERNED THAT CRITICISM OF POLICE WILL REDUCE SAFETY

“If you follow the news as presented by the mainstream media, you might well infer that America has lost its mind, at least insofar as policing is concerned. As depicted by the media, the current debate is between those who want to abolish the police and those who merely want to hamstring it.

However, a new Rasmusssen poll indicates that, combined, these two positions — abolish and hamstring — have little public support. Americans are worried about too little policing, not too much. We haven’t lost our minds.”

re Mary Wanna et al - Their ignorance about the operation of government bureaucracies manifests itself daily, here and elsewhere. Career government employees overwhelmingly are made up of and managed by liberals, progressives, Marxists, socialists, communists, ..., and leftists in general. These people have aggregated to such jobs because merit is not high on the job requirements list, as are e.g. class memberships, and governments are always the employers of last resort offering sinecures succored by public employees unions. To think that an incoming administration of a different political stripe can reach down into the bowels of the beast and make significant changes during their short tenure (where are you going to get that many incompetent libertarians and conservatives?) is beyond naive.

No, we're going to be stuck with those dummies forever, for it is the nature of government, and also the prime reason why I and mine want to minimize its role in our economy and lives.

RCP has Trump at -12.8 job approval even factoring in Rasmussen's -4. Fox has Trump at -11 for example which has Trump furious.

"The damning figures for Trump and his campaign are likely to draw a rebuke from the president, who has disparaged pollsters that publish unflattering findings. Trump has accused Fox News of publishing "phony" polls, and the Trump campaign demanded CNN apologize for some of its findings (CNN refused)."

C'mon, punch, you jump at any poll that gives you a number you can cream over, generally using the silly one number for the spread which gives you double the bad news... if you don't report the good news for the other guy. Which you don't.

Polls are polls. There's only one that counts.

OK Gregory now about Average Polls if that sounds better to you. Let me re ask my question:

I focus on average polls Gregory occasionally looking at individual polls. Why do you ignore them and only pay attention to Rasmussen? By the way what is the "good news" about Trump in the polls that you see today?
Here's a couple of examples that look grim for Trump.

RCP Average-Trump vs Biden Biden by 10:

RCP Trump job approval average of polls-Trump -12.8

What about these numbers is good Gregory?

[Todd Juvinall]

Consensus polls? No you lazy "journalist" you must read the poll itself but you are so lame you never so. And if all the polls are skewed (which they are) to the left, then the consensus polls are untrustworthy. Rasmussen uses true factual data and does not use "push polls" to get the desired result. Gregory is spot on and the lamestream stenographer we all know as Paul is not.

[Paul Emery]

So Todd are you going or the "unskewed polls" bit again? You used those polls and predicted Romney would win over Obama and he lost by 126 electoral votes. What an idiot you are. You don't learn do you?

[Paul Emery]

Todd

Rasmussen was off by 5 in that election. Rhey picked Romney by 1 and Obama won by 5

Sorry the grizzly details about Trumps chances of being re-elected are tough for you scenes. Can you present information that is encouraging to his prospects?

[Bill Tozer]

I liked the NYT’s site in November of 2016 with that tachometer graphic dial. Like driving an arcade car or motorcycle. Watch it move. Percentage odds of winning. As votes being tabulated but too early to announce (except maybe one small New England state that closed @ 8 EST), the cool speedometer graphic showed this:

Chances of winning

Clinton 92%. Trump 8. This being on Election Day.

From memory: ‘....while I appreciate your passion, Bill, Trump has a zero chance of winning. Zero, Nada. Big Goose Egg, ain’t going to happen.’ No possible way. No path for Trump to win.

That was 3 weeks before Election Day and I felt down for an hour.

Turn the page. When Punchy finally found a poll to comfort himself with and snatch victory out of total embarrassing utter defeat a year or two later, he causally mention that 538 was within the 3.5 margin of error, so Punchy got close.

Well, 0.000% chance of winning is not even in the same ballpark as “within the margin of error.” Zero chance, Bill. The Republicans better start rebuilding their pathetic party after their pathetic performance by picking Trump. Gag me with a spoon. Trump? Let me say it unequivocally again: There is no possible way Trump is going to win. Not even a chance. I once respected the formerly good Republican Party. Do not deny these polls????

Think 538 gave Trump the high mark of 19% chance and that set off a Liberal Firestorm denouncing that poll. I knew it was over a third, maybe 34%. If the doc tells you that you have a one in three chance of living through this operation, I take those odds any time. 1 in 3 odds ain’t bad. Not bad at all.

Chucky Schummer got demoted to ranking member status. Got a cocaine snorting-Moscow cuddling-’Grim Reaper to take Chuckie’s place.
BTW, the boyz sent Cocaine Mitch another two kilos of the good stuff....the kind the Jet Set, Hollywood Movie Stars and recording artists snort. Mitch will be all fired up, wired to max for weeks, and strut around with his pistoles a’blazing. While I personally do not condone cocaine use, it’s worth a try. We got a country to save

Actually, Trump picked himself and the R’s just sat by and watched the New Sheriff in Town strut down Main Street looking like Yosemite Sam with pistoles a’blazing. Reddish tint to his hair as well.

[Paul Emery]

Bill

You've played the Hillary loser card to death. this is now and these are polls taken in the last week. Trump is the second least popular sitting President since Roosevelt (second to Jimmy Carter) and you are giddy about his chances? Really...

"Sorry the grizzly details about Trumps chances of being re-elected are tough for you scenes. Can you present information that is encouraging to his prospects?"

You might as well try to predict the DOW 5 months ahead of time. You're like listening to one of those boring baseball statistic guys drone on and on. I haven't paid the slightest attention to this stuff other than noticing that it just looks like a noisy stock chart.

With all the stuff going on in the world, Paul the KVMR (all white people, all the time!) News Guy watches point changes in some poll. OCD singlemindedness? or Propagandist drawing attention from the world burning down. You decide.

If you really are an OCD chart watcher and can't help it, I do have to apologize for the snark.

[Paul Emery]

Here's a link to details about Trumps approval rating compared to all Presidents running for a 2nd term since Truman. Kennedy of course was an earlier date-day 1030-and Trumps approval number is adjusted to that date .

These are comparisons to previous presidents at this timeline-day 1244 in their Presidency except of course Kennedy. Trump is third from the bottom with only H.W,Bush and Jimmy Carter having less approval numbers and of course they both lost in their bid for re-election.

Trump-14.6 approval day 1244
all others day 1244 except Kennedy

Obama +.6
Bush +.8
Clinton +15
HW Bush -19.6
Reagan +21
Carter -22
Nixon +3
Johnson +8
Kennedy +28-day 1030
Eisenhower +54
Truman -5.9

[Bill Tozer]

punchy. small punchy.

.Also you don't seem to understand math Bill. 19% is slightly under 20% not a third. Where did you get those numbers?”

Yep, I be a math dunce. I said the NYT gave Trump an 8% chance on Election Day afternoon, and three weeks prior 538 gave Trump a 19% chance ( or there abouts). 19 % is better than nothing, one in five chance...still not good. But I had my own polls. Bounced from 34 high to 24 low, stayed mostly around high twenties to low thirties, was inching up to 1in 4 chance (25%) to almost one in three (33.333%) and I had 34%. But something was going on Michigan.and Western Pennsylvania and another state that had no accurate in-state polling. Two weeks to go and the Blue Wall, the Firewall, the breakwater was showing signs of giving of of not holding up.

I had 34%, looked like 39% held for awhile, then Grab Her Putang, then dropped to a momentary low of 24%, or 1in 4 rounding off. I on 4 chance of surviving the operation when the only alternative is death by not going for it. But, one in three I greatly improved my chances. Math stuff. Probabilities. Chances are........actually, 34% was a given, 39 more likely, 45-46 % doable.
Oh, you have your sources, I have mine. The same sources who stated unequivocally that 17 Intel Agencies DID NOT sign off on the Intelligence Report. Or was it orginally “all nineteen?”

Let’s continue.

“Bill. You've played the Hillary loser card to death. this is now and these are polls taken in the last week.”

Oh contraire, I have not played the “Hillary Loser Card to death.” I am playing the Punchy Ponytail of Ignorance wrong prediction again card to death! If you weren’t such an arrogant (yet surprisingly so very petty) adversary who is wrong 93% percent of the time on BIG Overarching issues that matter the most, then I would not be rubbing your nose in the pile that you, and only you, left for others to clean up. “I was within the margin of error.”

Do I deny that your polls say dark numbers for Trump. No. I do not deny what they released. Do I deny that the Wa Compost said that 17 Intel Agencies signed off on the Intel Report concerning Putin and Trump? (Talk about an October surprise!) No, I do not deny that the published polls say this is what if looks like today. Did I deny the Lib Lying Rags said 17 or 19 Intell Agencies agreed? No, I do not deny they printed that in black and white. I just deny or reject the whole premise. In fact, I reject most of your premises, so what’s their to discuss?

What, Paul, you don’t want to talk about the road to the WH in 2016? Wanna talk about the Bush-Gore race? The Iraq War? How plastic bags are all the rage now and organic cloth grocery bags are out? Kicked to the curb?

Hmmm. Teddy Roosevelt was the most popular President in our nation’s history for a long time. 1910 or so until even after he formed his Bull Moose Party. He was named America’s most popular in history for many years, decades. Unless you meant FRD in the 40’s.

What does Teddy Roosevelt, Thomas Jefferson, George Washington, and Abe Lincoln all have in common (besides their likenesses being beheaded, stained with crimson blood paint, and tossed in the pond to drown? Well, what they have in common is Mt Rushmore. Come and deface them, bitches. We got a little surprise of our own. Game on.

Nice folks you hang out with their, crack news director. Go interview the guy peddling ice cream on Broad Street or some person hang ging around the Miners Cultural Center.

Must be hard for you to make Nevada County an utopia where every tear is wiped away by a caring community.....all the while living in a Red District.

Just to be clear. I am not playing the Hillary loser card to death. I am playing the Punchy loser card to death...just to keep you from getting a swelled head and making outlandish statements connecting the dots and projecting some worse case scenario outcome. I got your back, Paul Emery. I have been trying my darnest to keep you from looking like an imbecile, but I have failed miserably. By task is to keep you from embarrassing yourself....like Biden’s handlers.
